Alright, so I've been trying to get Brawl+ to work on my Wii, but of course first I need the Homebrew Channel and Gecko OS. I use 4.0, so I was able to get the Homebrew Channel properly working using the Bannerbomb method. But for some reason, I can't get Gecko OS to work.

I've followed several tutorials such as this one and other very similar ones, all of which involve putting the Gecko OS files in the apps folder of my SD card. I've done that, but I can't get it to work on my Wii. Whenever I insert my SD card in and run the Homebrew Channel, the Homebrew Channel appears empty.

Please help me. What am I doing wrong?

Btw, if you need to know, my SD Card is a 4GB SDHC. :D

Move this to Smash Workshop.

The reason why it doesn't work is because there's a glitch in Homebrew Channel that it doesn't read SDHC but it reads SD cards and USB drives. They're fixing that for their next version.

You can use "SendElf" (wiibrew it if you don't know) to send the Gecko OS DOL file directly to your wii via network and execute Gecko OS that way.

Downgrade to 3.2
That is a seriously wrong answer, you don't need to have 3.2 to get Gecko OS working, it's an HBC issue.
